My Care Community
When you need care but don’t know where to turn—My Care Community (MCC) can help. Sometimes you need more care than one organization can provide. That’s where MCC comes in.
MCC is transforming the way community providers work together, connecting partners across sectors and informing policy decisions. MCC partners work together to identify needs and refer individuals and families to resources— supporting opportunities for a safe and healthy community for all.
What is My Care Community?
We're a network of more than 35 health care and social service providers who work together to help you find the care you need. We make it fast and easy to get referrals to doctors, social workers, mental health counselors, healthy food, reliable transportation, opportunities for children to learn, a safe place to live, a good job, and other services that keep you and your family safe and healthy. Since its launch in 2016, MCC partners have been connecting people with the resources they need to be healthy, safe, and well.
